Beauty care product

Abstract

A beauty care product comprising a sealable plastic container, a sealing means and a beauty care component is provided, wherein the container of which is resistant to random, uncontrolled deformation under a substantial pressure differential between the environment and inside the container, yet having an affordable cost of manufacture and/or being appealing to the consumer. A kit comprising said product thereof, a method of manufacturing said product, and a method of using said product for application onto skin and/or hair are also provided.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A beauty care product comprising:
 (a) a sealable plastic container comprising a base section, a body section, and a neck section forming an aperture; said sections delimiting an inner reservoir; 
 (b) a sealing means, affixed onto the neck section of the container; 
 (d) a beauty care component, contained within the reservoir of the container; wherein the reservoir comprises upon storage nor more than about 70% of the beauty care component by total volume of the reservoir, the remaining volume being filled with gas; wherein the body section is four-paneled and comprises a non-collapsible squeezable front panel, two symmetrical collapsible side panels and a non-collapsible squeezable back panel; wherein the front panel and back panel have a first average thickness, and the two side panels have a second average thickness which is less than the first average thickness. 
 
     
     
       2. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the side panels are temporarily deformable in response to a substantial pressure differential between the environment and inside the reservoir of the container. 
     
     
       3. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the front and/or back panels have a first average thickness in the range of about 0.25 mm to about 3 mm. 
     
     
       4. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the side panels have a second average thickness in the range of about 0.25 mm to about 1.5 mm. 
     
     
       5. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the container further comprises a shoulder section, joining the body section to the neck section. 
     
     
       6. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the reservoir has a total volume of from about 20 ml to about 1500 ml. 
     
     
       7. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the remaining volume of the reservoir is filled with ambient air. 
     
     
       8. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the body section is an extended hollow body section; and wherein the panels are substantially non-planar relative to the horizontal plane. 
     
     
       9. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the panels are substantially non-planar relative to the horizontal plane. 
     
     
       10. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the container has a width of from about 20 mm to about 105 mm, a length of from about 20 mm to about 80 mm, and a height of from about 50 mm to about 300 mm. 
     
     
       11. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the sealing means is releasably-affixed onto the neck section of the container. 
     
     
       12. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the beauty care component is a hair coloring and/or hair bleaching component comprising a total amount of oxidizing agent ranging from about 3% to about 13%, by weight of the total beauty care component. 
     
     
       13. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the container is made of plastics. 
     
     
       14. The product according to  claim 13 , wherein the container is made of high-density polyethylene. 
     
     
       15. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the container is made of high-density polyethylene and is substantially free of polyethylene terephthalate. 
     
     
       16. The product according to  claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the first average thickness to the second average thickness is in the range of 2:1 to 5:1. 
     
     
       17. A beauty care product comprising:
 (a) a sealable plastic container comprising a base section, a body section, and a neck section forming an aperture; said sections delimiting an inner reservoir; 
 (b) a sealing means, affixed onto the neck section of the container; 
 (d) a beauty care component, contained within the reservoir of the container; wherein the reservoir comprises upon storage nor more than about 70% of the beauty care component by total volume of the reservoir, the remaining volume being filled with gas; wherein the body section is four-paneled and comprises a non-collapsible squeezable front panel, two symmetrical collapsible side panels and a non-collapsible squeezable back panel; wherein the front panel and back panel have a first thickness, and the two side panels have a second thickness which is less than the first thickness. 
 
     
     
       18. The product according to  claim 17 , wherein the side panels are temporarily deformable in response to a substantial pressure differential between the environment and the inside of the reservoir of the container.
